A teacher always likes to see students take interest outside of the classroom instruction. A few of these students took it upon themselves to excavate a part of the playground. When I asked what they were doing, a student from another classroom told me she was digging to China. Hoggatteers, on the other hand, clearly informed me they were digging for artifacts. Then, they started showing me some interesting rocks they had excavated. Part of our goal for these kids is to motivate them to love learning and enjoy school. For whatever reason, fourth graders are battling apathy, this year. Before they can learn, I feel like I really need to instill in them a sense of empathy instead, as well as a drive to learn more. This type of interest, shown during recess, is a good sign. |
